This study explores a groundbreaking theoretical method to neutralize high-level radioactive waste using lead oxide (PbO) ...

Muons tend to scatter more from high-atomic-number materials, so the technique is particularly sensitive to the presence of materials such as uranium. As a result, it has been used to create systems ...

Quantum materials and superconductors are difficult enough to understand on their own. Unconventional superconductors, which ...

Researchers in the United States’ Fermilab moved the final subdetector for Mu2e into the ...

A subatomic particle called the muon is wobbling far more than leading physics models can explain. Its unusual behavior could be evidence of a fifth force of nature or a new dimension. Scientists ...

Muons might not behave as expected. But scientists can’t agree on what to expect. By taking stock of how the subatomic particles wobble in a magnetic field, physicists have pinned down a property of ...

Muon Space, the Mission Foundry for high-performance satellite constellations, is entering a new phase of operational scale, ...

SAN FRANCISCO – Muon Space will deliver space weather data to the U.S. Space Force under a $400,000 contract option announced July 11. Under the original $2.8 million contract with Air Force Life ...

The Muon g-2 ring sits in its detector hall amidst electronics racks, the muon beamline, and other equipment. This impressive experiment operates at negative 450 degrees Fahrenheit and studies the ...
